Completely agree, but there’s absolutely zero reason an entrepreneurial Bitcoin developer can’t fork one of the several popular open-sourced Bluesky clients and integrate zaps.
In the other direction, there’s no reason a nostr developer can’t integrate the Starter Packs that Bluesky has for user discovery.

Serious question – other than decentralization, easily the most valid argument Nostr has for itself, where does Nostr go well beyond ATProto?
I’ve yet to see a single feature or usecase that couldn’t be built on both and there are no shortage of features on one that I’d love to see adapted to the other.

Bbq pulled chicken, beef, pork – Put some frozen chicken breasts or a whole roast in the pot, sprinkle in a bunch of your favorite bbq seasoning, pour in an 8oz can of pineapple juice. Let it cook for 4-6 hours, then shred it with a fork and add bbq sauce to taste.
Salsa pulled chicken - Again, start with a few chicken breasts. Pour in a third of a packet of taco seasoning, a third of a packet of ranch seasoning, and at least half of a jar of salsa. Let it cook 4-6 hours, shred, serve in tacos.
A whole chicken – season well with whatever seasoning you’d like, put it on top of a bed of chopped onions. After 4-6 hours, carefully take it out and put it on a tray to go under the broiler for a few minutes to crisp up the skin. Last time I did this, I used pearl onions and they tasted like candy.
I’ve got plenty more, but those are the three that go over best with my kids.

I could run my own PDS and it would publish to my server. Many do, but the Bluesky server is still the largest by far.
Decentralization is unquestionably something nostr has a strong lead on, but Bluesky is crawling in the right direction.

As always, what made it great was the comminity. Ultimately, it was just a shiny new UI for IRC, combined with easy file sharing in a pre-napster era.
There were “trackers” to find servers you could connect to. Some were general, some had themes. Very Mac-centric at first, though there were Windows clients later on.

2025-03-09 03:56:24

Twenty five years ago, this protocol had a devoted and zealous community that was convinced it was the future of online communication.
Spoiler alert, we were wrong. It never reached a critical mass of users and no one remembers it. https://image.nostr.build/e6c3d4ffe1a83f86bfb7fefba08b228a78285b084450a22421fd0f6f1f3be30c.jpg

Continuing to grow in waves, with each wave getting larger. I think over 30 million accounts now with daily actives floating at around 2 million. It’s a lot easier to find a community that fits over there now, with abundant custom feeds and lists. Still largely left-leaning, but moderate and center-right folks are starting to pop up, as well as more journalists, politicians, and even government accounts.
The official client keeps getting new features and is extremely polished, but there are also a bunch of new 3rd party clients popping up to emulate TikTok or Instagram instead of Twitter-style.
